ReplyDeleteArchaeology is a way of learning about the past. It is important to learn archaeology because we would not know about the past like the caveman and the first wheel and the dinos. That is why archaeology is important. I learned that archaeologists dig up things like bones from the stone age.
ReplyDeleteAn Archaeologists life depends on somebodys point of view. This girl says that it is hard but pays off. It pays off with many friendships. You also go on many adventures.

ReplyDeleteArchaeology is the way of learning about the past. Archaeologists dig up bones and bodies for the stone age.
ReplyDeleteThe author has a different definition on what archaeology is. The world can learn from the people of the past about their accomplishments and failures.
ReplyDelete1. I learned that the the archaeologist use different tools and dig up bones 2. I Think that archaeology and ancient civilization tie together because you need to know allot of history.You also need proof
ReplyDeleteThe most interesting topic for me was the dark winters led to bigger eyeballs. It made me think about how our body's change during the years and different seasons. Also another one was the oldest skeleton found in America. I was exited to read it.

ReplyDeleteArcheology is learning about how our ancestors once lived and what technology they used and how they used it.
ReplyDeleteSo when we study the technology we turn it into something better like they bow' n' arrow or boats.
Millions of people use their technology everybody and even more lets say Leonardo de vinche and the wright brothers made a way to fly and we used their blue prints to create airplanes the way they are today. Archeology helps us create what images people had before us with technology we made this world better.
A few facts I learned from this video is that in order to protect artifacts from potentially being destroyed, archeologists do archeological digs. I also learned that you must LOVE the outdoors so you don't have a hard time out there.

Many things haven't been discovered yet, like many bones, stones, and gems, etc. Archeology is important for Ancient Civilizations because, without it, we wouldn't know much about the past, and many people who really want to learn about the past wouldn't be able to.
